The Operational Utility Of The Walton-Mckersie Attitudinal Structuring Model In Collective Bargaining, Donald Warren

Theses

This work is an heuristic inquiry into behavioral change theory designed for application to labor/management interaction in collective bargaining. The theory itself was postulated by Richard E. Walton and Robert B. McKersie in their book A Behavioral Theory Of Labor Negotiations. The principles of their theory are highly axiomatic and their importance and validity can only be recognized through applied empirical analyses that demonstrate or refute its concept.

The aspect of the theory which is the focal point of this research pertains to the structuring and restructuring of attitudes and attendant relationships resulting from the collective bargaining process. The objective …

Tourism Barometer, Vol. 2, No. 1, Dick Pope Sr. Institute For Tourism Studies

Dick Pope Sr. Institute Publications

The four-quarter ahead forecasts of out-of-state domestic visitor arrivals for the second quarter of 1983 through the first quarter of 1984 are presented in the graph below and also in the Table on the following page. Although fourth quarter air arrivals and subsequent 1982 totals ai-e not available at this time, these forecasts suggest that Florida visitor arrivals for 1983 will exceed estimated 1982 totals by some two million or almost six percent. As indicated in the last issue of the TOURISM BAROMETER, previous projections for 1983 were felt to be understated due to the severely depressed 1981 figures that …

Paired Comparisons And Personal Compensation: A Computer-Aided Approach, H. D. Simpkin

Theses

H.D. Simpkin's Paired Comparisons and Personnel Compensation: A Computer-Aided Approach explores the use of the paired comparison method in employee performance evaluation and salary determination. The study examines the challenges human resource managers face in linking salary increases with performance assessments, emphasizing the limitations of traditional ranking and rating systems. The paired comparison method, which systematically compares employees against each other in pairs, is proposed as a more reliable and objective alternative.

The thesis details a study conducted with laboratory technicians, where supervisors used both conventional ranking methods and a computerized paired comparison system. Statistical analysis demonstrated a high correlation …

The Value Of Subliminal Advertising To The Modern Marketer, Bruce Peckover

Honors Theses

This paper provides an evaluation of the arguments and evidence advanced supporting and denying the effectiveness of various subliminal techniques used in advertising. These practices supposedly influence consumer behavior by subconsciously altering attitudes or preferences toward products. While researchers offer some marginal evidence of subliminal stimuli influencing like/dislike reactions, the marketing relevance of the evidence remains to be documented. This investigation examines the history, use, legality, and value of subliminal advertising to the marketer. A thorough discussion of each of these points is made with reference to documented sources. The intent of this paper is not to deny the existence …

Economic Foundations For The Competition Policy Implemented By The Eec, J. Patrick Raines

Robins School of Business White Paper Series, 1980-2022

The purpose of this study is to provide a theoretical economic framework for the analysis of the competition policy implemented by the European Economic Community (EEC). The fundamental objective is to demonstrate that the EEC's actual approach to regulating restrictive business practices can be related to a concept of competition that is relevant and adequate for the analysis and explanation of competition policy in the EEC. The thesis is that a strong theoretical relationship can be shown to exist between EEC business regulation and the conceptual parallels in the theories on competition of J.A. Schumpeter and J.M. Clark.

The Behavior Of Confined Calves Raised For Veal: Are These Animals Distressed?, M. Kiley-Worthington

Ethology Collection

The behavior of 12 calves confined in crates was recorded at 1-minute intervals for 12-hour periods. These recordings were made at fortnightly intervals from approximately 2 to 16 weeks of age. In all, 864 hours of observations were recorded.

The activities that were performed and the amount of time spent doing each are outlined. Circadian rhythms were controlled largely by feeding time, although there was a difference between diurnal and nocturnal behavior. Individual calves vaned tn how they adapted to the restricted environment. Individual personality profiles and data on the ontogeny of behavior under these conditions are presented.
